[quote=Anonymous] "It's not about it taking a village to raise a child. it's about parents who want to have a child, and a woman who has decided she is unable or unwilling to raise her own. All people involved are equally lucky. People treat adoptive parents as if they are so lucky to be chosen by a birth parent, but I think the birth parent is equally lucky to have the opportunity to have someone else take care of snd live a child she is unae or unwilling to keep. As a result, I do t think either party owes the other any continuing relationship or anything else." Wow, just wow. Did you know birth mothers are pressured and sometimes lied to etc just to get them to give the baby up? Adoption counselors do not even inform the mothers about assisted housing or wic or how to get aid they qualify for. Divorce among adoptive parents is rare, if you believe the adoption advocates. You are just regergitation the ancient sentiment about how the parents who adopt are morally superior. What you almost left out is that an adoptee should be grateful for being adopted, but the way you phrased it saying that the b-momshould is a new spin on it. Face it, without the adoptive parents being there, there would be no adoption plan, so it is not like they save a child from a life in an orphanage. B-mom would have been better off having an abortion [/quote]
